Cocina 35 is such a cute brunch spot in Liberty Station. We visited on a weekday, which made parking easy, and enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere. The food was pretty good, but the drinks were the highlight of our visit. We only ordered a few items and didn't stay long, as we were mainly there for drinks that morning. I'd recommend Cocina 35 to anyone looking for a casual brunch with good drinks, especially friends, couples, or anyone who wants an easygoing weekday outing with convenient parking.
Key Points: - delicious Mexican-inspired brunch - warm, vibrant decor - lots of unexpected add-on/up-charges The Fam and I along with our close friends and their family ate at Cocina 35 for Sunday Brunch on our trip down to San Diego. It's definitely a popular spot. There was a line out the door, and we ended up waiting more than an hour to get in. This is their location at Liberty Station and there was a preexisting art festival of some sort going on, which might have added to the wait. But I bet they'd be busy regardless. Upon entering we noticed the colorful, vibrant decor. The Mrs. And her BFF couldn't help but to comment on "how cute!" Everything was. We got the seat next to the pink blossom indoor tree, seemingly the decorative centerpiece the dining room. The food was a wonderful variety of Mexican-inspired brunch, with different varieties of chilaquiles, while still having classics like pancakes. Anyone who knows me knows i absolutely must have pancakes during brunch. Here's what we ordered: - Agua Fresca flight: 4 distinctive flavors to try. The kids especially liked the horchata. - Omelette de la Casa: I chose carne asada. Excellent savory option. Pink pickled onions made the pictures look good while the carne asada was succulent! - Sampler de Mi Abuela: this was probably one of my favorites. Warm and fluffy pancakes with a Mexican twist on flavors including mazapan galleta Marias (first time discovering these cookies), and churro. * Kids Mini Toast: they have a kids' menu (+1 pt in our book). This was essentially a French toast and eggs that the Little One Enjoyed. She doesn't like runny eggs so i ordered over hard. Not the best for pictures but she loved it. The service was also friendly, welcoming, and accommodating. My only criticism is that there were quite a few unexpected add-on charges that weren't made particularly obvious. Here's what I mean: When we first sat down, a friendly lady wheeled a cart to us loaded with conchas and coffee and asked "would you like some bread for the table?" The way it was presented made all four of the adults think these were complimentary, similar to how a restaurant might offer complimentary bread before a meal. We later learned that these were additional charges. Similarly, she offered us chips and guac "for the whole table to share." Again, we found out these were an additional ~$20. Again, we were fooled because many other restaurants do offer this complimentary. But I must note that we did appreciate her friendly attitude, smile, and work ethic. The same thing happened with the bottled water from our server. We were asked if we wanted "water." Of course we did. She subsequently brought us bottled water at an additional charge but treated it like it was the default. Our friends actually then had the foresight to ask specifically if there was an additional charge for this, after which they found there was, leading to them declining, asking specifically for "tap water" instead. It was a bit frustrating because some of these things we were more than happy to pay for while some we would have passed on, had there been more transparency on what is included/complimentary vs. not. TBH, we all agreed that it as though they were trying to upsell these items to us, essentially pressuring us to buy them. A little more clarity/transparency could have fixed this. However, overall, we enjoyed the food, atmosphere, and service. It was worth the wait in line and I can definitely see why this place is so popular for brunch.
Cocina 35 in Point Loma absolutely lived up to the hype! The highlight for me was the agua fresca flight. The restaurant is incredibly Instagram-worthy, with a bright, colorful atmosphere that makes every corner picture-perfect. A special shoutout to Hector, who made the experience even better. His service went above and beyond--friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming.
Cosina 35 was a great spot for our group! We went with several people, and it was the perfect place to enjoy good food and spend time together. The atmosphere was welcoming, and there was plenty of space for everyone to relax and have a good time. The food was delicious, and everything we ordered came out fresh and full of flavor. The staff was friendly, attentive, and did a great job accommodating our larger party, making sure we had everything we needed throughout the meal. The chilaquiles were to die for ! If you're looking for a restaurant that's great for birthdays, celebrations, or just a night out with family and friends, I'd definitely recommend Cosina 35.
This is the second location I've been to! Please make reservations beforehand. The stand by line can get hectic for big groups. You have a better chance of getting in quicker if it's only for 2 persons. It was my friends first time and the hostess demonstrated how the food/drinks are presented. Once inside, it is beautifully decorated and designed. Definitely come dressed here with your girls or with family. The service was amazing! Ana is so sweet and answered all my questions with recommendations. Let me tell you, trust her recommendations! I had the El Antojo and the habanero creamy option to add to the omelette was so delicious! The food is filling but pleasing. I do recommend this restaurant to have fans inside as it does get hot.
**** FIRST TIMERS/ANYONE WANTING TO EAT HERE, MAKE A RESERVATION ***** This place was AMAZING! The table side cafecito and Abuela hot chocolate???? WITH THE CONCHAS????? and just when I thought things couldn't have gotten any better, THE FOOD! Bursting with flavor. The staff overall was very nice and the ambiance was just perfect. It's a little pricey to me but the with the serving sizes you just can't complain.
Fantastic service, good, drinks, and just a stunning location! Definitely make a reservation ahead of time if you can as the walk-in line gets very long quickly. As soon as we were seated, our drink orders and then our food orders were taken. Our server was so attentive and kind! He even helped take some photos of my friends and I. Definitely the extra mile! Our drinks and food came out quickly after ordering each time too. Our server checked on us throughout the experience too. I started out with their nonalcoholic spritz in their fun owl cups. Absolutely delicious! I was honestly amazed at how much I enjoyed it. Very refreshing. I also had the custom chilaquiles with salsa rojo, scrambled eggs, and Al pastor. The portion was ginormous, so I did end up taking half home, but it was so worth it. So delectable! Their al pastor was the best part. Loved the sweetness from the pineapple in their marinade. Honestly everything on their menu looks delicious.
Obsessed is honestly an understatement! We first discovered Cocina 35 in 2024 after seeing a TikTok video about it, and we've been coming back ever since. What started as a place we wanted to try has quickly become one of our favorite restaurants in San Diego. We love it so much that whenever friends or family visit from out of town, it's one of the first places we take them. We've even introduced plenty of San Diego locals who somehow had never been before and every single person has loved it. One thing we really appreciate is the outdoor seating area. We have two kids under 3, and we usually dine with a group of 5-8 people, so having a spacious outdoor area makes a huge difference. They also have a kids' menu, and our 3-year-old always enjoys having multiple options to choose from. The only minor downside is the occasional plane flying overhead, but honestly, it's not a deal breaker and has never taken away from the experience. If anything, the popularity of this place speaks for itself. Make a reservation if you can! Walk-in wait times can easily reach an hour or more, especially on weekends. Finding truly authentic Mexican food can be difficult, but Cocina 35 does an incredible job. The menu has expanded since we first started coming here, and somehow it just keeps getting better. Every dish we've ordered has come out hot, fresh, and full of flavor. Their chilaquiles are what initially brought us in, but we've continued exploring the menu and have yet to be disappointed. The customer service is another reason we keep returning. Every visit we've had a different server, and each one has been friendly, attentive, and genuinely happy to be there. Great food paired with great service is a winning combination. And for anyone with a sweet tooth like me, you're in luck! From their food specials to their drink options, there are plenty of delicious sweet treats to choose from. It's one of those places where you leave already talking about what you're going to order on your next visit. Cocina 35 has become a tradition for our family, and it's a place we continue recommending to everyone we know. If you're visiting San Diego or you're a local who somehow hasn't made it here yet, put it on your list!
Food was amazing and the amount you get is pretty fair, you won't be disappointed with what you select tbh. Pair that with great service and the environment especially when you walk in you get to see a few example plates to see what you are getting yourself into. The cost was a bit on the pricey side but you do get what you pay for. Def a good celebration spot to check out.
Such a GOOD brunch spot in sd that hits all of the marks!! My family had a reservation on a Sunday afternoon. Plenty of street parking! We were seated after 15 minutes and the shop is so cute, well decorated and clean! It's a loud and bustling environment. I ordered the chilaquiles with chorizo and the mild chipotle sauce. I also got the horchata cocktail and it was really good! Not super strong though, good for a brunch. It wasn't spicy and I was scared the chorizo would be too salty but it wasn't! Very fresh chilaquiles. Their servings are HUGEEE - plenty of leftovers came home with me! Service was great, they kept checking on us and were super professional. I'd visit again!
First time visiting. I made a reservation just in case. I'm glad I did because it was busy (Thursday at 10 am). There was a line of about 20 people when we left around 11:10 am. I ordered the Cajeta Toast (french toast with caramel drizzle, berries, and powdered sugar paired with eggs and bacon). It was good overall. I got scrambled eggs, and they were the steamed liquid eggs which aren't my top choice. The bacon was meh. If I had to guess, it was that bacon that comes precooked or something on that quality level. Service was fine - straight forward. We were a party of three, and I did ask if they could split the check. Apparently, they can only split it two ways max so we just decided to just venmo our friend who paid with her card. The ambiance was super cute. The large tree inside was so pretty. There was a mix of cute booths and regular tables inside. There was outside seating as well that looked like a nice option if you want less reverberating noises (besides the planes that fly over Liberty Station). Overall, I had a good time. I would def come back and recommend to a friend. PS: They give out mini spoons with a scoop of cajeta with the check. Very nice touch!
I came to celebrate my birthday with my family and Cocina 35 gave me a wonderful experience. We had a reservation, we were seated immediately. It was Easter weekend so the restaurant was packed. But it had beautiful music playing, lots of people, and happy vibes. Everything on the menu looked delicious, it's hard to choose what you want. I do recommend you get there early, the parking lot is located next to a park along with other restaurants so it does get full. Our server Isabelle got water to our table and gave us great recommendations on the menu, and showed us from the front window what was popular on their menu. -we had the flight of margaritas -El Patron (chilaquiles with French toast 10/10) - The lotería burrito was well portioned and the salsa had so much flavor -El Tochomorocho my sister had a delicious sweet corn tamale that balanced the spiciness of the chilaquiles -for dessert: I was treated with a concha, cheesecake and churro plate to share with my family The cocha was 10/10! Heater on the stovetop and I think they put cajeta (goat milk caramel) tasted so different! When Isabelle brought out my dessert plate she rang a bell and had them sing happy birthday. PLUS! it's not Mexican if they are not chanting "Que le muerda! Que le muerda! (Bite it! Bite it!) Thank you so much Isabelle! You are wonderful, and I will never forget my experience. Thank you for making it special.
Food : Delicious chilaquiles! Mazapan iced latte , sweetened with the piloncillo syrup. Order the 3 x tacos de papa dorados and chilaquiles rancheros . The plates are huge you can share a meal. They have vegan options. Ambiance: Lovely! Outdoor & Indoor seating. Downside the tables for 2 - people are too close to each other, literally arms length so be warned. Service: 10/10 customer service! The hosts were very welcoming and helpful. The servers were quick and attentive. Servers came by often to make sure we were good. Had to take a walk around the park, the stomach was satisfied . The restrooms are clean & tidy. There is even mouthwash available for use.
Sunday brunch is very popular here! Have he organized one in your group make reservations a week before. Our server, Carmela provided us outstanding service! 10-star service! The general manager Mario checked in on us multiple times, he gets a gold star for the day! Executive summary: Service:5/5 Depth of menu:5/5 Flavor:5/5 Good for groups:5/5 Parking:5/5 Drinks:5/5 Coffee:5/5 Kid friendly:5/5 We had coffee flight, not shown on the menu, that was a nice teaser for the coffee choices. We also had the mimosa flight, outstanding choice. I had the French toast with blueberries and strawberries, with maple syrup. It was not too much, just the right portion sizes. It tasted delicious! As packed as this place was for Sunday brunch our dood came out within 15 minutes! Returning back here again! Enjoy! read more

Hi Jim, thank you so much for sharing such a detailed review! We’re…
Delicious chilaquiles!! The chips were cooked perfectly and still held their crunch after being coated in sauce and drenched with toppings. The cocktails were delicious as well! The spritz was my favorite. Our server was also super sweet and accommodating, we went for our friend's birthday and she set it up to have people come out and sing which was so fun. The restaurant is super cute and aesthetic inside. We sat outside and think the ac could have blown a better. read more

Hi April, thank you so much for sharing your experience! We’re happy…
Make sure you have reservations when coming!!! The wait looked incredibly long. Service was sooo quick and the food was good. I enjoyed being able to customize your own chilaquiles as well as their sampler plates. I will say, stick to the chilaquiles as we ordered the chicken flautas and they were a little skimpy on the filling.. still flavorful but they definitely specialize in chilaquiles here. Drinks were also good. Tochomorocho- huevos rancheros were a little too soggy for our liking and a tad bland. They do provide salt and pepper so just add to your liking. Green chilaquiles were nice and tangy but still had a good kick. The sweet corn tamal was my favorite on the plate. Chicken flautas- good but could use a lot more filling. read more

Wow, just wow! Went there last week on a Saturday and was pleasantly surprised! The staff was stellar and the food on point. What truly stood out was the Manager walking around and staff asking if your table or food were correct. I did not see ONE person just standing around! They must have an amazing HR department and offer employees ' customer sensitivity training' as when we were departing even the food prep personnel were waving at us! They were on it! The food was served in a timely manner and our hostess was extremely nice and accommodating. Top notch customer service!!! read more

* Great for brunch * Great food * Casual ambiance Such a great Brunch spot/chilaquiles spot! Wait times at this location can be long, so plan ahead. Note: your entire party must be present before being seated. Portions are huge and definitely shareable. The food is flavorful and satisfying. One thing I really loved if you're celebrating a birthday, the staff comes out to sing and celebrate with you, which is super sweet and makes your day extra special . This location can get busy depending on the day and time, but they do offer a variety of alcoholic beverages, which makes it even more fun. Just a heads-up: not all locations serve alcohol. We tried the Piñata drink, the margarita flight, and the celebration flight all fun options. Highly recommend the chilaquiles divorciados since you get to choose different sauces perfect if you love variety or want to try more than one flavor. The enfrijoladas are also really good. The coffee flight is awesome if you like sampling different coffees, and you can never go wrong with their house coffee. If you prefer cold coffee, the mazapán coffee is a must-try. This location is great for brunch with the ladies definitely a must-visit! read more

First of all, if you can get a reservation, make it. This brunch place is super popular and it'll save you a lot of time. Your whole party needs to be in attendance to be seated. I went a few days after Christmas on a week day and the walk-in line was long. We were seated right away though, thanks to our reservations. Staff was really nice and we were happy with the service. The food is great and has been consistent through all my visits. We ordered La Bomba, Rancheros, and Cremosos. The servings are substantial with generous servings of protein in all the dishes. I'm partial to the red salsa, so the Rancheros with chorizo was a highlight for me. Solid brunch option, so would definitely recommend. read more

Hey Cayla,…
Presentation, ambience, and experience all five star. Food is 3 star which is a solid average in taste. That's said, I've been here twice. It's a great place to take out of town friends or meet the crew for lunch. The location is fantastic, right in the Liberty Station complex. After lunch, take a stroll by the water, fish from the bridge, loiter around the farmers market and soak up the sun and pleasant vibes all around Cocina 35. I'd suggest making a reservation, this place is always busy, for good reason. The photos paint a perfect picture of the restaurant. Enjoy! read more

After visiting a few times doing both walk in and reservations through opentable this place is not bad. I love the ambience, the inside is beautiful. The restaurant is located right across from the San Diego airport so you will hear an airplane taking off very often and it is loud. The service is not bad for the most part. The first time I went it was kind of annoying for them to tell us that we had a time limit but I've noticed that they didn't say that the last couple times I went so I don't know if they Took people's feedback into consideration or what but it was nice to not be rushed from the very beginning. After trying a few dishes the stars of this restaurant are definitely the Chilaquiles and the café de olla latte. I've tried the burritos and they are just OK, very dry. I've tried the pork quesadillas and the cheese makes it better but I can tell that if it didn't have the cheese it would be dry. The cream jalapeño sauce for the Chilaquiles is amazing. Carne Asada at this restaurant is not seasoned and they are tough pieces of well done beef. What's great about this restaurant is you can walk around after you are done. The weekend often have different events that you can wander to if you coincidentally are there while there is an event happening on the many lawns. Great place to meet up with your friends on the weekend unless you need three hours at least to chat. read more

Hi Jennifer, thank you for taking the time to share such a detailed…
This is some very good coffee to wake up to, iced or hot. The type you even get 1 to go but still wish you grabbed a couple bags on the way out. Service was awesome for a family setting or romantic vibes for newer couples. I had the torta with no mayo no cheese ordered side of the beans to smear on for substitute which was fire . Lastly the chipotle broth was the final topping to complement the rest of the sandwich. Aka Torta lol. Will be back. read more

Hey Landon,…
Sunday brunch at Cocina 35 at Liberty Station in Point Loma! They had a cart that came around with concha, chocolate cookies, and empanadas. And well, got one of each! Needed to wash all those goodies down with coffee, but couldn't decide which one, so got the cafecito flight. They were all good! Then, for the main meal, got the El Patron with chilaquiles, beans, eggs & cajeta toast! So yummy! Need to come back! read more

Ambience was warm and welcoming. Wonderful music and I love that a server circulates throughout the dining room with her pan dulce and cafecito cart, inviting guests to start their meal with these traditional Mexican treats. Service at their Point Loma location is consistently warm and genuinely friendly. Birthday brunches are common and celebrated with the staff gathering around to sing Las Mañanitas . Food is delicious and portions are generous. I love this place and look forward to returning soon. read more

Came here for a brunch at Cocina 35 in Liberty Station and had such a fun time! The restaurant has a super vibrant atmosphere -- lots of energy, music, and birthday celebrations where the staff sings and gets everyone involved. Our server was amazing, and everyone we interacted with was very friendly and upbeat. We had a few cocktails, which were okay, and I ordered the chilaquiles -- they were yummy, and I especially liked the chipotle sauce. My friends also enjoyed their dishes. The food overall was nice -- not necessarily standout or incredible, but definitely tasty and satisfying. I'd absolutely come back for a group brunch! It's the perfect spot for a fun, lively meal with great vibes and friendly service. read more

Hi Lionel, thank you so much for sharing your experience! We’re glad…
My friend and I stopped by for breakfast. We got there at 8:00am right when they opened. We did not have reservations but were able to be seated right away. By the time we were done at 9:00am, there was already a line starting to form. I got the El Patron sampler plate. I liked that it was savory from the chilaquiles and sweet from the french toast. read more

First experience booked early for a Sunday Brunch and reservation done ahead of time but they do take walk ups. Beautiful Dining space was fabulous and spaced out with tables and booths also outdoor patio. They do have a bar can't miss them mimosas and specialty drinks, menu wow dunno what to choose but I do love Chilaquiles with a spicy salsa side eggs and French toast , coffee the Marzipan Latte with Oat Milk yummy! and of course flan nice and thick sweet with fruits. Over all from start to finish AMAZING!!! don't forget to grab some Merch on your way out Cafe de Olla instant coffee yes!!! Will return again soon read more

Very cute and picture perfect but the food was ok (I liked the Bomba chilaquiles but cremoso wasn't great). The chilies were veeeery spicy so be prepared if you order them! Service was a bit lacking. read more
Delicious chilaquiles and good sized portions. We ordered La Bomba chilaquiles (with sunny side up eggs) and Los Rancheros chilaquiles (also with sunny side up eggs) and both plates were great. We'll try their other varieties next time. In addition, we ordered Enchiladas de Huevo and Burrito de Machaca. The Machaca Burritos were on the smaller side, but perfect if you're looking for a lighter meal. Service was good. Only dislike was the glasses of warm water they started us out with, but that was quickly corrected once we spoke to our server. It was a little warm inside but otherwise the ambiance was good. Plenty of parking with the normal Liberty Station lots. Will return, and try their other locations. read more

Hi Alex E., thanks for the great feedback — we’re glad you enjoyed…
We had a wonderful meal experience at Cocina 35 @Liberty Station. The restaurant is beautiful with the lovely pink leaves and branches. Anelle was our server and we had excellent service! We truly enjoyed our chilaquiles, and eating in such a brunch space felt like a hug! read more
The service at Cocina 35 -- 10/10! Our waiter was so kind and patient with our large birthday party table. We had a manager stop by and ask how we were doing part way through our meal, and there was even someone with a cart walking around offering cafe de olla and conchas. I was very happy with my hot cafe de olla and my friends loved the flavored lattes they ordered. To eat they have a variety of sweet and savory Mexican breakfast options. Most of us went for some version of chilaquiles. I was happy with my food overall. The ambiance of this place is so cutie! Very pink and feminine, and the centerpiece is a large tree with pink flowers! Even the bathrooms were cute! read more
